      An absolutely unforgettable experience that I can wholeheartedly recommend to anyone. Ballooning isn't a scary experience at all and Hunter Valley is a spectacular location so if you're thinking of going, do it ASAP. The guys at Balloon Aloft are extremely professional in every aspect of the process and make the whole experience go smoothly. We were in the air for a full hour and the pilot explained what we were seeing and how the balloons are operated. After landing we all helped to pack up the balloon and then went for a beautiful champagne breakfast at Peterson House. Thank you Balloon Aloft for the amazing memories.

      Great morning out. Really worth the experience. Highly recommended but not for the faint hearted. Our flight time was 28 minutes, and we were offered another flight excluding the breakfast. We were very happy with the flight a couldn’t ask for a better experience. Our pilot, Byron made it most enjoyable. Heaps of Dad jokes and he knew what he was doing. I was kind of worried being at altitude with no engine or steering. Couldn’t getting heading and the landing strip was somewhere over there. There was, however nothing to worry about. We went from doing 30km per hour on decent to 2km per hour after a headwind kicked in and slowed us down.

      It was an interesting hot air balloon ride experience with Balloon Aloft. The service was great, every crew members were amazing! Pilot was really cool and experienced. Together with the ride, you get breakfast and pictures too! Highly recommended to try out this activity at Hunter Valley with Balloon Aloft.

      Great experience. Good view of vineyard. Do be mindful meeting time is at 4:45 AM, where you will meet at your breakfast location where they will allocate you and ask for your breakfast option, the a minibus will take you to your take-off place, they will prepare their hot air balloon there & you will take-off & fly for 45mins-1hour until landing. This will then be followed by helping each other fold the balloon and packing it away before heading to your breakfast. Good experience as you will see everything from start to finish.

      The experience was absolutely phenomenal, out pilot Sam and the rest of the crew were great and really friendly. We also got lucky and went up 4000 feet. Don't get me started on the meal that came with the balloon ride, the food was amazing. Would definitely recommend!

      • Balloons and their baskets actually come in all different sizes and our fleet of balloons range in carrying capacity from 2 passengers up to 24 passengers. Aboard our shared flights there is generally 6 – 24 passengers aboard. The exact number of passengers aboard any given flight is going to be determined by how many people are booked for the day but the important thing to note is that the layout of these baskets ensures that everyone is still able to have a great view. Our baskets are divided into passenger compartments with the smaller balloons having two passenger compartments (which will hold 3-4 passenger each) and 4 passenger compartments the larger balloon with 4 – 6 people in each compartment. The compartments allow for 4, 5 or 6 adults, depending on the basket size, to stand shoulder to shoulder facing outwards, to enjoy the amazing view.
